  • In this paper, analysis and control design of ac-dc converter, normally nonlinear time-varying system, using sliding mode controller to achieve fast output voltage response, disturbance rejection and robust system in the presence of load variation are demonstrated. The objective of this method is to develop methodology for output voltage to be constant and input current sinusoidal that results in nearly unity power factor, respectively. In addition the converter can be also bidirectional power flow. Simulation results using Matlab/Simulink show the effectiveness of sliding mode control system compared with linear feedback controller to guarantee enhanced PF>0.98, THD<5%, and ripple output voltage is less than 1% at the maximum output power.

  • This paper proposes a minimum power factor control for maximum efficiency operation of an induction motor, under low load condition. Minimum input or maximum efficiency operation is achived by properly adjusting the amplitude of the stator voltage, with the three phase AC voltage controller. Through the simulation, the relationships between the delay angle and input power under various load conditions are examined. Experimental results are also given, which show good coincidence with the simulation results.

  • Generally, in a single-phase energy storage system (ESS) for households, AC ripple component with twice the fundamental frequency exists inevitably in the DC link voltage of single-phase PCS. In the grid-connected mode of a single-phase inverter, the AC ripple component in the DC link voltage causes low-order harmonics on grid-side current that deteriorates power quality on an AC grid. In this work, a control system adopting a feedforward controller is established to eliminate the AC ripple interference on the DC link side. Optimal battery nominal voltage design method is also proposed by considering the voltage loss and AC ripple voltage on DC link side in a single-phase ESS. Finally, the control system and battery nominal voltage design method are verified through simulations and experiments.

  • In this paper a single-stage single-phase differential type isolated AC-DC converter is proposed. This converter eliminates the requirement to use bulky electrolytic capacitor from the system and at the same time provides DC charging by employing the AC Power Decoupling waveform control method. All the switches of the converter achieve ZVS turn on during half line cycle and all diodes achieve ZCS turn off during entire line cycle. A conventional controller is implemented for PFC control and output regulation, whereas a power decoupling controller is added to compensate $2^{nd}$ harmonic ripple power. In addition, an interleaving technique is applied to increase the power range of the converter and reduce the input inductor size. In the end simulation verification is performed and results are obtained for 6.6KW.

  • This paper describes a simulation model and a scaled hardware model to analyze the dynamic performance of Unified Power Flow Controller, which can flexibly adjust the active power flow through the ac transmission line. The design of control system for UPFC was developed using vector control method. The results of simulation and scaled hardware test show that the developed control system works accurately. Both models would be very effective for analyzing the dynamic performance of the Unified Power Flow Controller.

  • In this paper, a new single phase voltage sag/swell compensator using direct power conversion is proposed. A new compensator consists of input/output filter, series transformer and direct ac-ac converter, which is a single-phase back-to-back PWM converter without dc-link capacitors. Advantages of the proposed compensator include: simple power circuit by eliminating dc link electrolytic capacitors and thereby, improved reliability and increased life time of the entire compensator; simple PWM strategy or compensating voltage sag/swell at the same time and reduced switching losses in the ac-ac converter. Further, the proposed scheme is able to adopt simple switch commutation method without requiring complex four-step commutation method that is commonly employed in the direct power conversion. Simulation and experimental results are shown to demonstrate the advantages of the new compensator and PWM strategy. A 220V, 3kVA single-phase compensator based on the digital signal processor controller is built and tested.

  • This paper presents the control and implementation of the dual-stator-winding induction generator for variable frequency AC (VFAC) generating system. This generator has two sets of stator windings embedded into the stator slots. The power winding produces the VFAC power to feed the loads, and the control winding is connected to the static excitation controller to control the generator for output voltage regulation with speed and load variations. On the basis of the idea of power balance, an instantaneous slip frequency control (ISFC) strategy using the information of both the output voltage and the output power is used in this system. A series of experiments is carried out on a 15 kW prototype for verification. Results show that the system has good static and dynamic performance in a wide speed range, which demonstrates that the ISFC strategy is suitable for this system.

  • The modified sinusoidal pulse-width modulation (SPWM) is one of the PWM techniques used in three-phase AC-DC buck converters. The modified SPWM works without the current sensor (the converter is current sensorless), improves production of sinusoidal AC current, enables obtainment of near-unity power factor, and controls output voltage through modulation gain (ranging from 0 to 1). The main problem of the modified SPWM is the huge starting current and voltage (during transient) that results from a large step change from the reference voltage. When the load changes, the output voltage significantly drops (through switching losses and non-ideal converter elements). The single-input single-output (SISO) approach with minor-loop voltage feedback controller presented here overcomes this problem. This approach is created on a theoretical linear model and verified by discrete-model simulation on MATLAB/Simulink. The capability and effectiveness of the SISO approach in compensating start-up current/voltage and in achieving zero steady-state error were tested for transient cases with step-changed load and step-changed reference voltage for linear and non-linear loads. Tests were done to analyze the transient performance against various controller gains. An experiment prototype was also developed for verification.

  • This paper presents the modeling for islanded hybrid AC/DC microgrid and the verification of the proposed supervisory controller for energy management for this microgrid. The supervisory controller allows the microgrid system to operate in different power flows through the proposed control algorithm, it has several roles in the management of the energy flow between the different components of the microgrid for reliable operation. The proposed microgrid has both essential objectives such as the maximum use of renewable energies resources and the reduction of multiple conversion processes in an individual AC or DC microgrids. The microgrid system considered for this study has a solar photovoltaic (PV), a wind turbine (WT), a battery (BT), and a AC/DC loads. A small islanded hybrid AC/DC microgrid has been modeled and simulated using the MATLAB-Simulink. The simulation results show that the system can maintain stable operation under the proposed supervisory controller when the microgrid is switched from one operating mode of energy flow to another.
